Why do cells go through cell division?
Cancer cells are abnormal in that they do not respond to the body's internal and external symbols. When normal cells touch other cells, they stop dividing but, cancer cells don't stop dividing. They pile up causing many problems.
What are some factors that can stop normal cells from growing?
Cells stop growing at a certain size because as they grow larger, they become less efficient because it take longer for the materials that enter the cell to reach the center to be distributed.
How are sex cells different from other cell in the body?
Sex cells have 1/2 the number of chromosomes of a normal cell (23)
Through the process of meiosis sex cells are produced that are?
Haploid cells, as opposed to diploid cells. Haploid cells contain only 23 chromosomes, but normal diploid cells contain 46 chromosomes.
Does Fungi stop growing?
Yes fungi stops growing but only after the reproduction conditions are insufficient in terms of temperature and pH. If you keep fungi in refrigerator, it will not die but will only stop reproducing. If taken out then after sometimes it will again start reproducing.
What factor can stop normal cells from growing?
Death.
Do normal cells stop growing when they come into contact with other cells?
yes, they stop growing. This property of them is called CONTACT INHIBITATION. Cancer cells lose this property.
Normal cells stop growing when they come into contact with other cells?
I don't think so at all.
What happens when normal cells are grown in a dish containing all the requirements necessary?
Normal cells stop growing when they encounter another cell.
How do normal cells know to stop growing?
depends on the genetic code inside the nucleus
Why do normal cell grown in a petri dish tend to stop growing once they have covered the bottom of the dish?
because when cells come in contact with each other the cells stop growing
Does cancer start when cells stop growing and dividing?
everybody is born with cancer cell. No cancer does not start when cells have stoped growing and dividing. it is simply because the cancer cells are getting agrrivated witch makes it start.

No, it is about normal.
What happens when cells do not stop growing?
When the cells grow large enough they will split.
What happens when cell come in contact with others cells?
they stop growing
How are cancer cells and contact inhibition connected?
Normal cells stop growing and reproducing once their plasma membrane comes into contact with that of another cell. Cancer cells don't. They continue to grow into other cells, taking over and often destroying the other cells, creating a tumor.
Is it true that radiation destroys fast growing cancer cells more slowly than normal cells?
it is ture
